I assume the person you are describing in these posts
is Rob Singer. If not, please correct me.
Rob has made a career out of writing anti-Dancer's-methods
posts and articles. I sometimes think that he really believes the ignorant X%$#^%$@
he dishes out. I sometimes think that he loves to stir up controversy. I often
think that he has some sort of chemical imbalance and sometimes he thinks one
way and sometimes the other.
He's sent me some private posts as well. One time he berated
me very negatively and personally for changing co-hosts away from Frank
Kneeland. (For the record, about 10% of the people who have talked about this
to me prefer Frank over Richard Munchkin and about 90% prefer Munchkin. It's
okay to be on either side of those percentages. People prefer different things.
But writing an email repeatedly insulting me on the subject is not something to
completely ignore.) On a later occasion Rob wrote and suggested we publicly be
friends. I declined. As I said, a chemical imbalance could explain the about
face. I can't think of anything else.
I appreciate your public support, Mickey. Several others on
this site have posted publicly or sent private messages offering best wishes
and told me not to let the idiots on this site get me down. I thank these
people as well.
I'm actually used to ignoring the posts from some of the
people here. However badly I've been chastised in the past week over my recent
divorce, it would have been 10 times worse if I didn't post something to that
effect and people starting seeing me with a girlfriend. Some suggested a
paragraph about the subject would have been better than an article. Perhaps. I
disagree and anyway it's too late to go back and re-do it. I suspect even a
paragraph would have been enough to get the anti-Dancer folks here just as
rabid as the article did.
Those who suggested that I threw Shirley away without
fighting as hard as I could to keep her are very much mistaken. Those who
suggested that Bonnie was a girlfriend WHILE I was married are also mistaken. I
took my marriage vows seriously and kept them and last November would have bet
anyone any amount that Shirley and I would be together as long as we were both
alive. In December my world fell apart completely out of the blue.
Whether you're the type of person who prefers to kick me
while I'm down or wish me well in getting my life together again says a lot
more about you than it does about me. The fact that Rob is choosing to be one
of the leaders of the kickers should surprise nobody here.
